Sec. 1379g. Authority to facilitate transition

    (a) The Secretary is authorized to take such action as he determines 
to be necessary to facilitate the transition from the program currently 
in effect to the program provided for in this part. Notwithstanding any 
other provision of this part, such authority shall include, but shall 
not be limited to, the authority to exempt all or a portion of the wheat 
or food products made therefrom in the channels of trade on the 
effective date of the program under this part from the marketing 
restrictions in subsection (b) of section 1379d of this title, or to 
sell certificates to persons owning such wheat or food products at such 
prices as the Secretary may determine. Any such certificate shall be 
issued by Commodity Credit Corporation.
    (b) Whenever the face value per bushel of domestic marketing 
certificates for a marketing year is substantially different from the 
face value of domestic marketing certificates for the preceding 
marketing year, the Secretary is authorized to take such action as he 
determines necessary to facilitate the transition between marketing 
years. Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, such authority 
shall include, but shall not be limited to, the authority to sell 
certificates to persons engaged in the processing of wheat into food 
products covering such quantities of wheat, at such prices, and under 
such terms and conditions as the Secretary may by regulation provide. 
Any such certificate shall be issued by Commodity Credit Corporation.
    (c) The Secretary is authorized to take such action as he determines 
to be necessary to facilitate the transition from the certificate 
program provided for under section 1379d of this title to a program 
under which no certificates are required. Notwithstanding any other 
provision of law, such authority shall include, but shall not be limited 
to the authority to exempt all or a portion of wheat or food products 
made therefrom in the channels of trade on July 1, 1973, from the 
marketing restrictions in subsection (b) of section 1379d of this title, 
or to sell certificates to persons owning such wheat or food products 
made therefrom at such price and under such terms and conditions as the 
Secretary may determine. Any such certificate shall be issued by the 
Commodity Credit Corporation. Nothing herein shall authorize the 
Secretary to require certificates on wheat processed after June 30, 
1973.
